Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Diet Ginger Beer Hand - Crafted Soft Drinks scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Artificial Sweeteners (Sucralose): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
Within Soda, this product is more processed than about 30% of the 6,804 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
